-a, --all
Show all files specified on the command line. By default, only files that are accessed by at least
one process are shown.
|
-c Same as -m option, used for POSIX compatibility.
|
-f Silently ignored, used for POSIX compatibility.
|
-k, --kill
Kill processes accessing the file. Unless changed with -SIGNAL, SIGKILL is sent. An fuser process
never kills itself, but may kill other fuser processes. The effective user ID of the process
executing fuser is set to its real user ID before attempting to kill.
|
-i, --interactive
Ask the user for confirmation before killing a process. This option is silently ignored if -k is
not present too.
|
-l, --list-signals
List all known signal names.
|
-m NAME, --mount NAME
NAME specifies a file on a mounted file system or a block device that is mounted. All processes
accessing files on that file system are listed. If a directory file is specified, it is
automatically changed to NAME/. to use any file system that might be mounted on that directory.
|
-M --ismountpoint
Request will be fulfilled only if NAME specifies a mountpoint. This is an invaluable seatbelt
which prevents you from killing the machine if NAME happens to not be a filesystem.
|
-w Kill only processes which have write access. This option is silently ignored if -k is not present
too.
|
-n SPACE, --namespace SPACE
Select a different name space. The name spaces file (file names, the default), udp (local UDP
ports), and tcp (local TCP ports) are supported. For ports, either the port number or the symbolic
name can be specified. If there is no ambiguity, the shortcut notation name/Ispace (e.g. 80/tcp )
can be used.
|
-s, --silent
Silent operation. -u and -v are ignored in this mode. -a must not be used with -s.
|
-SIGNAL
Use the specified signal instead of SIGKILL when killing processes. Signals can be specified
either by name (e.g. -HUP) or by number (e.g. -1). This option is silently ignored if the -k
option is not used.
|
-u, --user
Append the user name of the process owner to each PID.
|
-v, --verbose
Verbose mode. Processes are shown in a ps-like style. The fields PID, USER and COMMAND are similar
to ps. ACCESS shows how the process accesses the file. Verbose mode will also show when a
particular file is being access as a mount point, knfs export or swap file. In this case kernel is
shown instead of the PID.
|
-V, --version
Display version information.
|
-4, --ipv4
Search only for IPv4 sockets. This option must not be used with the -6 option and only has an
effect with the tcp and udp namespaces.
|
-6, --ipv6
Search only for IPv6 sockets. This option must not be used with the -4 option and only has an
effect with the tcp and udp namespaces.
